through every stage of women’s health.

HOW WE CAN HELP

FERTILITY AND IVF



Supporting you through the fertility journey, from natural conception to IVF. Acupuncture can be used alongside medical fertility care to support relaxation, wellbeing and some of the physical and emotional challenges that can accompany treatment.


PREGNANCY & POSTNATAL


Gentle, individualised support throughout pregnancy and the postnatal period. Acupuncture may help with symptoms including nausea, pelvic and back pain, while providing space to support your wellbeing through the physical changes of pregnancy and early parenthood.


MENSTRUAL & HORMONAL HEALTH


From painful periods and PMS to endometriosis and changing cycles, acupuncture can offer supportive care for a range of menstrual and hormonal symptoms. Treatment is personalised around your symptoms, your cycle and your individual needs.

GUT, PAIN & EMOTIONAL HEALTH


Your physical and emotional wellbeing are closely connected. Acupuncture can form part of an integrated approach to digestive symptoms, persistent pain, stress and anxiety, with treatment tailored to the way your symptoms affect you as a whole.


PERIMENOPAUSE & MENOPAUSE


Perimenopause and menopause can affect much more than your periods. Acupuncture may help with symptoms such as hot flushes, sleep disruption and changes in wellbeing, offering a personalised, non-pharmacological option alongside your wider healthcare.
